Look-Alikes: Coaches

I thought this would be fun. I saw that the Wizard of Odds did this about a year ago and Hugging Harold Reynolds does as well. Tell me what you think:



1. Rich Rodriguez & Rocco Mediate-This is actually what made me decide to do this. Even though I dont' watch golf much at all, I couldn't help but cheer for Rocco. It struck me odd that he looked so much like RichRod. Hopefully the anointed savior in Ann Arbor won't struggle as much in the clutch against Ohio State like Rocco did against Tiger......



2. Frank Solich & Billy Bob Thornton-It's not that close, but I couldn't help but think about Billy Bob when I saw this photo of Solich at an Ohio press conference. Hopefully you don't think this comparison is as dumb as the concept of The Astronaut Farmer....



3. Charlie Weatherbie & Frank Willard-If you don't recognize Willard, you'd probably recognize his voice. He did the nude neighbors in Family Guy and he had a piece in The Boondocks as the principle of Riley's school. He's also pretty famous from Everybody Loves Raymond as Amy's parent.



4. Al Golden & Tom Cruise-When Golden was offered the UCLA position, you think he'd be jumping up and down on a.....Okay, I won't go there. But these two look similar, do they not? As far as I know, Al Golden doesn't partake in Scientology, either.



5. Brent Guy & Jesse Ventura-Brent Guy seems a little happier, doesn't he? Think of a smiling Jesse Ventura. You know, when he's not strangling opposing wrestlers or political foes.



6. Jeff Genyk & Wayne Gretzky-Both look a little dorky, both are coaches, but both have nothing in common as far as on-field/ice performance is concerned. While Gretzky is The Great One, Genyk would have to be considered The One of Rank Mediocrity.



7. Sylvester Croom & Dusty Baker-Wizard of Odds beat me to this one. They had Sly Croom and Clarence Thomas (both with those wire-rimmed glasses).



8. June Jones & John Cleese-Ah, great facial hair, men! You might remember Cleese from Fawlty Towers or Rat Race. With Jones being clean-shaven, there isn't as much of a resemblence anymore, but it's in the moustaches!



9. Phil Fulmer & Fred Thompson-Imagine former Republican senator Fred Thompson on doughnuts for the next 20 weeks. That results in Phil Fulmer. They both have that ugly, bulldog-scrunched face :) .



10. David Bailiff & John Goodman-I feel kind of bad for Bailiff. One moment, he is involved with a disasterous season with Rice and the next, I'm comparing him to John Goodman. When it comes to food with Goodman, "There's never any left...."



11. Pat Hill & Otto von Bismarck-Jeopardy isn't the only place you'd see Bismarck. One's the Iron Chancellor, the other.....kind looks like a pug dog. But either way, the gruff, Wilford Brimely-esque moustaches seal the deal on this look-alike comparison. Come on, Pat, is being the prime minister of Prussia or the first chancellor of Germany more difficult than finally winning a WAC title?



12. Hal Mumme & Greg Norman-The Shark only won two majors throughout his career and that's about as many times New Mexico State has won in the past two years despite expectations with the passing game. Chase Holbrook could probably throw up the same amount of yardage as one of Norman's tee shots back in his prime.



13. Tim Brewster & Borat's Driving Instructor-Both seem to be about as clueless as eachother in their respective situations. I wonder if Brewster reminds his team when they storm out of the tunnel that they "must not hit the children."



14. Howard Schnellenberger & Santa Claus-Is an explanation necessary? After football, Schnell will most likely be one of those mall Santas, begrudgingly seating youngsters upon his lap and, when they wet their pants, taking it like a man. I almost caught Howard when I was young, but that was a long time ago.....




And my personal favorite (I didn't come up with this one, this was from the Wizard of Odds):
